Cold air entering through poorly sealed windows can make living in an apartment uncomfortable even during the heating season.
If replacing old windows before winter is not possible, there are several inexpensive ways to reduce drafts and decrease heat loss.
Before choosing a method of insulation, determine where the cold air is coming from. This can be gaps between the window frame and the wall, worn rubber seals, loose joints, or space under the sill. Each problem requires its own approach.
Using wool and fabric for small gaps
Wool can be a temporary filler for narrow gaps around old window frames. Tightly pack it into places where drafts are felt, trying not to obstruct opening and closing the window.
